Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's net worth has surpassed Intel's market value, reflecting the tech giants' contrasting trajectories in today's semiconductor and artificial intelligence industries.
Nvidia's triumph
Huang's financial dominance
According to Tom's Hardware, the Nvidia CEO's personal net worth has reached at a massive $109 billion, exceeding Intel's market capitalization of $96 billion. It is noteworthy that if Huang decided to acquire the Blues company, he would have at least $13 billion left.
Intel Crisis
In August, Intel faced serious financial difficulties that led to large-scale staff cuts and the suspension of dividend payments. The situation was aggravated by the departure of director Lip-Bu Tan. The company also announced restructuring plans, including separating its chip manufacturing and design divisions and suspending construction of some factories. There were even rumors about a possible takeover of Intel by Qualcomm.
Stock performance
It is worth noting that back in 2020, Intel's market value reached $290 billion. However, this year the company's shares have fallen by an unprecedented 60%.
Nvidia Rise
In contrast to Intel, Nvidia is showing impressive growth. Shares of the leading AI GPU maker have skyrocketed, temporarily making the company the world's most valuable company with a capitalization of $3.34 trillion. Despite a subsequent 10% decline, Nvidia is still in the top three, along with giants such as Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet (Google) and Amazon.
Jensen Huang's Personal Wealth
Nvidia's success directly affected Jensen Huang's wealth. He owns more than 75 million shares of the company directly and another 786 million through various trusts and partnerships. The total value of his assets in Nvidia exceeds $100 billion, which allowed him to rank 11th in the Forbes list of billionaires.

Wow, incredible! Nvidia just took off 🚀 And Intel seems to be going through hard times. I wonder how this will affect the market as a whole?
Hans
Yes, Olivia, the situation is impressive. Nvidia is clearly benefiting from the AI boom. But don't write off Intel - they have vast experience and resources for recovery.
Sophie
I agree with Hans. Intel can find new areas of growth. But Jensen Huang is great - his AI strategy clearly paid off 👏
Carlos
I wonder what will happen next. Maybe Intel will actually buy Qualcomm? This could strengthen their position in the mobile chip market.
Viktor
Bah, all these ups and downs are just a soap bubble. Nvidia, Intel - what's the difference? In a couple of years, everything could turn upside down. I see no point in discussing these games of the rich.
Sophia
Victor, I don't agree. These changes reflect real technological shifts. AI is changing the world, and Nvidia was in the right place at the right time. This is important for all of us.
Hans
Sophia is right. By the way, I recently read about Nvidia's new AI chips. Their performance is simply amazing! I think this is just the beginning of the AI revolution 🤖
Olivia
Yes guys, AI is the future. But I'm a little worried about market monopolization. Hopefully Intel and other companies can compete with Nvidia. Competition is the engine of progress, right? 😉
